The Last Hunger Season by Roger Thurow
Africa's small farmers, who comprise two-thirds of its population, toil in a time warp, living and working essentially as they did in the 1930s. This title tells a story of a group of Kenyan farmers working to transcend lives of dire poverty and hunger. It illuminates the challenges, and necessity, of transforming Africa's agricultural sector.
